Many are close!

In terms of usability though, they are better.

For example, ask GPT4 for an example of cross site scripting in flask and you'll have an ethics discussion. Grab an uncensored model off HuggingFace you're off to the races

Seems interesting! Do I need high end hardware or can I run them on my old laptop that I use as home server?

Oh no you need a 3060 at least :(

Requires cuda. They’re essentially large mathematical equations that solve the probability of the next word.

The equations are derived by trying different combinations of values until one works well. (This is the learning in machine learning). The trick is changing the numbers in a way that gets better each time (see e.g. gradient descent)
